I don't release things that don't work. At least, not on purpose.

thats ok. Any luck or ideas on the sound code...

Warmtoe's been working on that for a while, and apparently he's got it working better now. I've been working on the video emulation a bit more.

?Is Stef (or anybody else) fixing the problems with C68K?

With that problems fixed, C68K will be the best 68K emulator written in C.

Done already, actually. Stef released a fixed version of C68K earlier today / yesterday (depending on your timezone). I need to test it, but it should fix most of the weirdness problems. It probably won't fix many/all of the crashing problems though.

Wow, that's great, you (BlackAura, Stef. D., Warmtoe and others like Speud) are making an incredible work, this emu has advanced an entire age in a really short time.

I know it's not a funny thing, but I'd like if you could report here your progress with your work in this emu.

And of course, keep up the good work!

i didnt do much but making the temporary menu and suggesting a way to use hi-res rendering. i dont work on it anymore atm, maybe ill pick wills code later and try to make it work, if nobody else found a way to implement sram support before.

If any one wants it i have a SDL version now up and running with the c68k core. Pretty fast the way it is no frameskip sound is on but it's not outputing for me i dont know why it works fine when i go back to not using the c68k core strange.
Controls are also messed up dont know why ether again.

I say it's 90% with sound but it's staying silent. Sound is turned on it's faster with it disababled it's fullspeed looking would not know im use to pal megadrive.

Pretty old code i just put the c68k core in and wanted to see how fast it was pretty amazing cpu core.

Edit to fix the controls i had to hack it like this now they work fine.

Code: Select all

/* Input bitmasks */
#define INPUT_MODE      (0x00000800)
#define INPUT_Z         (0x00000400)
#define INPUT_Y         (0x00000200)
#define INPUT_X         (0x00000100)
#define INPUT_UP      (0x0000008) // run left INPUT_LEFT 
#define INPUT_C         (0x0000007)
#define INPUT_B         (0x0000006)
#define INPUT_LEFT       (0x0000005) //run right
#define INPUT_START       (0x00000004)
#define INPUT_A      (0x00000003)    // input up
#define INPUT_DOWN      (0x00000002)
#define INPUT_RIGHT        (0x00000001)  // run right  INPUT_UP

Does the m68k control the input defines for the controls and some how the sound when i switched these 2 things dont work right any more?

Rather odd. Any way this is the first thing ive tryed to do on my new computer. about 4 days ago i had a mild hart attack so for a gift my wife bought me a new pc. to much salt to much siting at the computer all day to my stress i guess. Im only 27 so it can happen to any one.

Sorry about the heart attack. Take care of yourself, Ian. I'd personally hate to miss you.
